Attic newspaper detail

The attic was a lot of fun. I've seen other miniaturists' attics with newspaper wallpaper, and I wanted to do something similar. I took images from newspapers online, resized and printed sheets on two shades of parchment paper. Then came the task of cutting out each individual page of newsprint so I could apply the paper piece by piece. I glued beams along the walls and ceiling, leaving 1 1/2" between them. I then coated the wood beams with a black and brown wash. I used the individual newspaper pieces to cover the sections between the beams, mashing the paper, gluing wrinkles in place and turning some corners down. I added some water spots with a brown paint wash. This is the ceiling portion before it was glued in place.
